Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Angular Animations version 8.2.10 represents a minor update and refinement over its predecessor, 8.2.9, within the Angular framework's animation ecosystem. Both versions, designed for seamless integration of web animations into Angular applications, share a foundational dependency on tslib for Typescript helper functions and depend upon a corresponding @angular/core peer dependency indicating tight coupling with the core Angular framework. Developers leveraging Angular Animations will find the API largely consistent between these versions, focusing on providing declarative syntax and powerful features for creating engaging user interface transitions and effects.

While the code structure – as reflected by an identical file count of 141– remains mostly unchanged, there is a small increase in the unpacked size of version 8.2.10, suggesting that some internal optimizations, bug fixes or minor feature enhancements were introduced. Specifically, the newer version has an unpacked size of 4698778 bytes, compared to 4698579 bytes in version 8.2.9. Developers should consider this new version to receive these refinements, and might discover a smaller footprint and better performance within their application. It is notable that this version was released on October 9th, 2019, while the previous was on October 2nd 2019, only a week apart, suggesting that at least one critical fix must have been produced.

As with 8.2.9, the latest 8.2.10 is licensed under the MIT license and the source code is available on Github. Angular developers benefit from using Angular Animations library to implement complex animations in a simpler and more maintainable manner. When upgrading from version 8.2.9, developers should review community resources and the Angular change log, so they understand internal code level details.
